There was a time when that word could be uttered with pride. There was a time when
that party was honorable, respectful, ethical and morally straight. Today it can be
likened and not too far removed from the groupings of a cult. A sect which is extremist
and/or false and being nurtured by the guidance of an authoritarian, charismatic leader.
A cult which lays claims to having exclusive and exceptional power to solve the world's
problems. A group which finds easy prey in those whose intellectual capacities have been
numbed to the point of paralysis.
We saw this in evidence during the farcical and ludicrous impeachment trial of Bill
Clinton. The so-called democrat party voted 100% in his favor. 100% in favor of one of
the most immoral, unethical, ineffectual individuals to ever inhabit the white house.
This cult had and has no shame.
This party, and I use the term loosely, is the party of fraud. It's legacy is the
supervision of fraudulent elections as its history will attest. For this election it
is already bringing out a battalion of lawyers allegedly to make sure that there is no
fraud. It's right on time since fraud by others has been discovered around the country
and most recent in an Ohio community where there were more ballots cast than there were
registered voters. Thus these minions of the law find themselves changing hats from
being discoverers of fraud to being protectors of the fraudulent.
The process began with Franklin D. Roosevelt who to this day is still protected by the media
but whose decisions in his day led us to a great many of the problems we faced after his
passing. His chicanery on many political fronts coupled with the adulation which embraced
him helped his party to rationalize its way into depravity, corruption and degradation. He
sowed and we are reaping the poison.
It could well be argued that the fire in the belly, the unbending determination, the
willingness to sacrifice, the love of one's country, the complete sense of duty and honor
may have been lost with the demise of those who comprised the greatest generation. A
considerable amount of this may be laid in the lap of public education where in at least the
last two generations it has been regurgitating little heads full of mush who have no clue
relative to the history and the greatness of this country. Who can't read, write or do
simple arithmetic and who have no understanding that America has done more in 200 years
towards the fulfillment of man's desire for freedom and his ability to create and progress
than the rest of the world has done in 2000 years. But that is another story.
The leadership of this party deteriorated from Roosevelt to Johnson to Carter to Clinton and
now to the wizard of the forked tongue, John Kerry. Sandwiched in between and attempting to
stem the democrat flow towards socialism and communism stood Kennedy and Truman. It was most
notably during the Truman era when Secretary of Defense James Forrestal was informed a number
of times relative to the infiltration of communists into high places of government and
industry. Yes, and this included not only the office of Secretary of State but the news
media, the unions and the supposed intellectuals in our education system.
The question has oft been raised as to why the Jews and the Blacks have supported this party
and a simplified response is not too difficult. The Jews have mainly supported because their
parents, their grandparents and their great grandparents did so. They are just now beginning
to realize that this is no longer the party of their ancestors but a party which actually
embodies the credos of the despots throughout history who have subjugated them.
The Blacks for decades bemoaned the enclosure of the corral which imprisoned them by Whitey
but when let free it didn't take them long to build their own corral and imprison themselves.
Their sense of inadequacy in a free market as promoted by their charlatan leaders engulfed
them. They, too, are just beginning to understand that it was the Republican party which
was responsible for the Civil Right Act and not the Democrats..
The vast majority of so-called democrats who support the party do not have a clue that the
title is used purely for political purposes. The vast majority who call themselves democrats
do NOT believe in such historically failed tenets as the equal distribution of wealth, the
superiority of a collective society, that government should provide and protect you from the
cradle to the grave, that all property is the property of the state, etc.
It is difficult to believe that this party is so devoid of patriotic leadership that in these contemporary times they saddled the country with a Jimmy Carter whose ineptness was so huge
that even other nations were embarrassed for us. This man gave away the Panama Canal which
was one of our most helpful commercial entities but also a critical military post. This
epitome of intellectual veracity recently reported to an audience that the American
Revolution need not have been fought if we had been more capable of explaining to the King
of England our problems.
In Clinton, we received a charismatic and immoral traitor who fled to England pretending to
be a student and when things got too hot then ended up groveling at the feet of the Russians
for protection. He never made a decision without his weather beaten index finger flailing to
check the wind. You are aware of his sordid history. Other than his loose zipper, his
legacy and that of his party will forever be remembered for having sold classified and top
secret technology to a potential enemy. And got away with it.
In Kerry, his unpatriotic and treacherous past is a matter of public record except that part
which he refuses to allow for public scrutiny. Other than that, the principal problem with
that man is any time he sees a fork in the road he'll take it and every decision made would
have to be with the approval of the United Nations. It has been written that the Navy yanked Kerry's security clearance when it became axiomatic he was a Naval Reserve officer not to be
trusted. One retired agent reportedly observed, "Lieutenant Kerry wasn't cleared to know what
time it was!"
These are but three of the light weights available to the liberals who helped demean and
destroy the once Democrat party. I really hate to call them Democrats.
An excerpt from the Ellensburg Daily Record of October 6, 2004 as written by Political
Science Professor Mathew Manweller is a fitting reminder as to where the duty of every patriotic American lies.
"The defeat of President Bush will send a chilling message to future presidents who may need to make difficult, yet unpopular decisions. America has always been a nation that rises to the demands of history regardless of the costs or appeal. If we turn away from that legacy, we turn away from who we are. I believe that 100 years from now historians will look back at the election of 2004 and see it as the decisive election of our century. Depending on the outcome, they will describe it as the moment America joined the ranks of ordinary nations; or they will describe it as the moment the prodigal sons and daughters of the greatest generation accepted their burden as caretakers of the City on the Hill."
